The main theme in all the songs is the star, the light in the darkness. The child is in the center. The new born is fleeing with his parents to a neighbour country to escape death. It's a story to be re-told many times, and with archetype dimensions.
I can imagine that many many generations has found a comfort in singing about the light in the darkness when the season here in the north brings out so little daylight.
This year I find I'm quite well suited for experiencing the cold and the darkness. It's not a big problem at all. I find it like a reason for slowing down, take a little time off, it's ok to have a bit of a "winter-sleep" like the hedgehog and the bear do. Thanks to my little dog I have more walks outdoor and I try to make the long walk in daylight to get som good rythm in the day. Oh, how I love to feel the fresh air when it's snowing and minus degrees! It's marvellous!
I wish you all a good day on the 5th of December.
